Nice out enough to wear shorts but needed gloves and a headband and windbreaker. Saw a beautiful sunset. Stopped and talked to a neighbor while she was putting up lights. I love meeting new people. First run since Monday? Now I feel back to normal. I had a pulled left hamstring, not bad, but Had to take days off. There is something about running that can't be replaced, maybe by swimming, maybe by biking or weights. But it is a tranquilizer I don't want to live without.

Hope I can get into the habit of weights and or Core work every day or every other day. 25/25 one armed rows with a 45 dumbbell, 30/30 single leg lifts, 30 squats, 30 push ups, 20 squat jumps, 20/...read more

Ran about 4.5 miles with Kevin and George, did not re-start the Garmin correctly. I wore long pants and a jacket and gloves. 37 and 30 degree wind chill. Boy I wish I wore shorts, not used to the long pants, they make you overheat at 30 degrees. Run felt super labored but came out of it on the last mile.

It was a 5 miles out, 5 miles back with hills, we had no wind and warm temps for December 4.th. Those hills were challenging coming back, had to catch my breath on a couple coming back. But good race over all with very fortunate weather. Our local end of the year run. 1:36 is good for me.

Ran lunch time hill route, ran with Kevin and George, we did the 8 hill pattern in the cemetery. Never thought I would make it today because I was tired from screwed up sleep for the last two days, but somehow I made it. On the way back I was proud of myself to get in a full 5 miles because I left a little early.

First run in 10 days, and here is why: My wife discovered a bed bug in my teenagers sheet, when waking him up for school, and then after taking the whole bed outside, we found a little nest along ... read more

It was so nice to go do a lunch run with friends between doing IT security training and a long webinar at work. It felt like a crisp fall day. Even though it is into November, we got lucky with sunshine and about 45 degrees

I did the Indianapolis Monumental marathon. It was a success. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, but we savor the good and dismiss the bad. It was the best marathon I have ever ra... read more

Ran 2 miles before work and 3.5 miles at lunch. Met up with George and Kevin, and then ran with them for a while, they were going to run the hill route, but they ran a easy route for me, nice, and then back to work. Felt great though running today. Had not ran since Saturday. I needed it. On taper for a Marathon Saturday in Indianapolis. So glad it will be nice and cool, thats all I care about.

Wow, Doug, good luck on the marathon! I'm doing a half and am quite apprehensive about it due to the old leg. But yes, if it is cool it should be a lot easier. My half is notorious for the evil headwind. You are going downhill but the wind is strong enough to loft you like a kite. Anyway, a nice run!

Ran 10 miles Saturday with kevin and Dan. There was a good turnout for our frosttoes group. They slowed down to my 930 pace. Then went and got a Uhaul truck and made 2 loads moving my sister which was kind of like a marathon, it gives me a good feeling though to help family
